DICK CLARK STILL GOING STRONG at 80 - Dick Clark Online

We don't see or hear much about
Dick Clark
BUT the man once known as 'America's oldest living teenager' who almost single- handedly carried rock and roll through the ages is very much alive and still putting in his typical long days at work. But other than his brief annual appearances on his New Years Eve ABC program, we seldom see Dick Clark in the news since he suffered a stroke in 2004. Though, today, many of his programs are still running, from 'Rock, Roll Remember' in radio syndication, to his award and game shows. Recently , the Emmys paid a well deserved tribute to Clark . Ryan

No Karaoke Here - OAKLAND'S ALLEY 50 YEARS Strong with Original Piano Player

Last King of the Piano Bars?
